A Bill to legalise marriages with niever or dephos by marriage was introduced last year. It got through Committes without altera tion, but it will not passed for lack of time.

Sir Arthur has the support of the National Council of Women of Home Office, and the blessing of Great Britain, the sympathy of the hundreds of men and women who suffer in various ways from the pre- sent legal disability. To a reporter be said:

The position was primari'y caus- ed by such cases being forgotten when the Deceased Wale's Saster Act was passed. There are cases of extra taxes having to be paid on, what are really family in- heritances---because the offspring of certain marringes · are legally recognised. Widows of soldiers cannot draw pensions bei cause they maried-oftem un- knowingly an uncle by marriage.

It does not follow that because a man can marry his dead wife's sister he ought to be able to marry the sister's child on the ground that she is one degres further removed.

The laws of affinity rest solely upon what is expedient. It is for the advocates of the proposed change to auke out their case. They can hardly expect anyone to lock favourably on the marriage of a man with a girl who is young enough to be his daughter. And if a wife has to regard her nisce as competent to be her súc. cessor, the peace of some families is going to be endangered.

They must also demonstrate that there is a genuine public de" mand for this innovation. : Dr. Istad Feldman, formerly lecturer on physiology at the Lon- don Hospital Medical College, and member of the British Social Hygiene Council, said:

There is no evidence that the offspring of auch marriages are in any way of a lower standard than the offspring of marriages of not so close an affinity, ka
